Class letterTool

java.lang.Object
  letterTool

All Implemented Interfaces:

ourTool

public class letterTool
extends java.lang.Object
implements ourTool

The letterTool class represents letter tools. All texts are implemented by mouse events with x-coordinates and y-coordinates in parent frame. The class letterTool includes methods for clicking, dragging, and releasing the mouse. There are no OS/Hardware dependencies and no variances. There is no need for any security constraints and no references to external specifications.

Field Summary

static boolean	boldness Holds the state of the font's boldness.
static int	currentFont Holds the size of the current Font.
static int	currentSize Holds the state of the font's current size.
static boolean	italicness Holds the state of the font's italicness.
boolean	ok_action The dialog is closed by OK.
java.awt.Frame	parentFrame A main frame that generates the letter tool frame.
static boolean	underlineness Holds the state of the font's underlineness.

Constructor Summary

letterTool(java.awt.Frame parent)
Creates a letterTool and initializes a newly created java.awt.Frame object so that it represents a copy of the argument java.awt.Frame There are no OS/Hardware dependencies and no variances.

Constructor Detail

letterTool

public letterTool(java.awt.Frame parent)

Creates a letterTool and initializes a newly created java.awt.Frame object so that it represents a copy of the argument java.awt.Frame There are no OS/Hardware dependencies and no variances. There is no need for any security constraints and no references to external specifications.

Parameters:

parent - frame to initialize the letter tool

Method Detail

clickAction

public void clickAction(java.awt.event.MouseEvent mevt,
                        main_canvas theCanvas)

Allows the user to click the mouse using the letterTool. The parameters passed in are a MouseEvent, which holds the coordinates of where the mouse was clicked, and the main_canvas, where it will be drawn. There are no OS/Hardware dependencies and no variances. There is no need for any security constraints and no references to external specifications.

Specified by:

clickAction in interface ourTool

Parameters:

mevt - contains information about the mouse event including x-coordinates and y-coordinates

theCanvas - main canvas

dragAction

public void dragAction(java.awt.event.MouseEvent mevt,
                       main_canvas theCanvas)

Allows the user to drag the mouse, using the letter Tool. Since this is the letterTool and dragging is unnecessary, this method was not implemented. However, it was created because it implements OurTool. There are no OS/Hardware dependencies and no variances. There is no need for any security constraints and no references to external specifications.

Specified by:

dragAction in interface ourTool

Parameters:

mevt - object contains information about the mouse event including x-coordinates and y-coordinates

theCanvas - main canvas

mouseReleaseAction

public void mouseReleaseAction(java.awt.event.MouseEvent mevt,
                               main_canvas theCanvas)

Allows the user to release the mouse, using the letter Tool. Since this is the letterTool and releasing the mouse is unnecessary, this method was not implemented. However, it was created because it implements OurTool. There are no OS/Hardware dependencies and no variances. There is no need for any security constraints and no references to external specifications.

Specified by:

mouseReleaseAction in interface ourTool

Parameters:

mevt - object contains information about the mouse event including x-coordinates and y-coordinates

theCanvas - main canvas
